The partners went back to the mall camp which they did not find Arisu or any of the others. They waited and waited for 3 days with no one coming.

Y/n: My guess is we should look for them at some of the other games.

Alice: I like that idea. I also believe that you are well rested now.

Y/n: Alright. Let's go.

The partners approached a restaurant that was surprisingly a game arena. The two looked at each other in confusion but then just entered through the laser border. They followed the arrows to a dining area which only had one light directly over a table in the middle and a guy standing right next to it. They got their facial recognition done with their phones and realized that there were only 3 phones provided in this game and the sign said that there were 3 players required. Of course that now that they're done registering, the game can start.

Woman's Voice: Registration is now closed. There are a total of 3 participants. The game will now commence. Difficulty: Two of Diamonds.

 Difficulty: Two of Diamonds

Y/n: Wow. That's lucky.

Man: I don't think you can be too sure until the rules are explained. Name's Akira by the way.

Y/n: Okay. Y/n's my name.

Alice: And I am Alice Synthesis 30. Or Alice Zuberg. But you can call me Alice.

Akira: I get it.

Woman's Voice: Game: The Princess Bride. Rules: One player will be chosen to mix up the two given cups. The other two players will have 30 minutes to choose a cup to drink. One cup will be filled with water that is safe and the other will be poisoned. If the two players don't choose a cup within the time limit, the player who mixed up the cups will die. If the two players pick their cups but one player does not drink it, it is game over for the two participants and the player who mixed them up will clear the game. If one of the two people selecting the cups lives, then the mixer and that player will clear the game.

Akira: Sounds like fun. Just like the movie.

Alice: I just hope that me and Y/n won't be selecting the cups.

Woman's Voice: The player that will shuffle the cups will be ID number 1000201, Alice Zuberg.

A screen showed that Alice is the shuffler and Y/n and Akira are the ones who will choose the cups.

Alice: ...Me? ...Oh no.

Y/n: Alice, at least we don't have to see one or the other die guaranteed.

Alice: You are right. But what if you pick the wrong cup?
